2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

EvanKrum welcome to the forum.

1st some questions!

1)Is your Sport a 4.2 S/C or 4.4V8?

2)If it is a 4.4V8 does it have Dynamic Response fitted?

3)Do you intend to take it offroad? 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

Tim, Althought those questions are very relevant, the best looking rims on the RRS are the 20" Stormers followed by the standard SC 20" rims, don't you think?

If you only ever go on road, then perhaps the Overfinch Tiger 22" rims would do... snazzy. L319 D4 HSE

Yes RR, but in view of SuperT's comments about fitting the 20"s to a non Dynamic Pack HSE it might be worth pointing out that the ride will be a bit on the hard side! I agree though the best wheels are both the Stormers and the standard S/C wheels. I don't recall ever seeing anyone fitting the 20" split rims that LR sell, maybe they were the ones that Biggles fitted, can't remember.

Evan these are the 22" Tigers, made by Overfinch and also available in the USA. They are fitted to a Diesel HSE without Dynamic Pack

Evan, you may have come to the wrong forum for bliinging up RRS's, we tend to to get very critical of cars that stray a bit far from the standard! About the blingest thing most folks here have fitted is the supercharged front grille on a non-supercharged version! You might find more stuff over on the American based RRSport forums............ where there are several folks who have done unspeakable things (in our eyes!)to there cars! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

FYI, the Overfinch Tigers can be special ordered in chrome or titanium (dark gray) finish as well as "regular flavor" silver from Overfinch USA... But you really can have just about any rim chromed if you really want that look and the manufacturer does not offer the option. De gustibus non disputandum est. Smile There are a gazillion 20" or larger rims that may fit the Sport, but not many that have actually been tested on this car (and/or are TUV certified.) Be careful in choosing, as the ride can degrade substantially if you go with rims that are too heavy or poorly manufactured - this is a very heavy car that needs suitably strong alloys - and you will get no help from Land Rover should you have ride quality issues of any kind with aftermarket wheels (vibrations, drifting, etc.)

Some photos of chromed and non-chromed Overfinch Tigers (and a couple more aftermarket 22" rims), plus a Ferrari F430, don't ask..: http://www.rrsport.co.uk/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=173
